Luckily, simple updates can breathe new life into this small space. Transform your boring bath by incorporating these fast, fresh updates that don't cost a fortune.
Create a focal point with updated faucets
It's a focal point, one of the most frequently used items in the bath, so it's important that your vanity incorporates a fabulous faucet. If you prefer more traditional styling, the Moen Wetherly bathroom faucet offers a refreshed, old-world design that's guaranteed to add a touch of luxury. Or if you like a more industrial, yet elegant look, Gibson bathroom faucets feature an edgy, square-shaped high-arc spout and sleek lever handles. And to keep your new fixtures looking flawless, both are available at Lowe's in Spot Resist Brushed Nickel finish, which resists fingerprints and water spots, maintaining the brilliance of the faucet.
In addition to the beautiful styling, you'll feel good about your update, since each bathroom faucet has been certified to meet WaterSense criteria, meaning the fixtures meet the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) guidelines as an environmentally responsible and efficient product.
Add beauty with bath hardware
Once you've upgraded your faucet, look to the other metallic accents in the room for a subtle, yet effective way to pull together the design. Coordinating bath hardware, such as towel bars, rings, robe hooks, shelves, knobs and pulls, will instantly add a functional and fashionable impact.
Let there be light
Assess your current lighting to ensure it offers the look and feel you want for your bath. Too dark? Add new decorative fixtures that complement your faucets and hardware. There are many styles that feature multiple lamps for added illumination. Too bright? Add a dimmer switch to your lighting to soften the mood when you're looking to relax.
Set the mood with color
According to Freshome architecture and design blog, room color affects our moods and thoughts - so choose wisely. Add a splash of color to the walls with a fresh coat of high-gloss paint to give the space an instant facelift. Create a zen retreat by enhancing your bath with shades of yellow, which are energizing and uplifting; or soft blues, which are calming, relaxing and serene.
Next, add coordinating textiles; a fabric shower curtain, plush bath towels, rugs and bath mat can add a finishing designer touch.
Shower sanctuary
A quality showerhead can dramatically improve your daily showering experience. Take your shower from lackluster to luxurious with the new Moen Halo rainshower. The pivoting, double-ring design offers up to 60 percent more coverage than standard rainshowers and features three consumer-preferred spray settings - all presented in a clean, modern design to make a style statement in any bath.
Replacing a showerhead can be a quick and inexpensive project, simply unscrew the old showerhead and attach the new one to the shower arm.
Add a finishing touch with furniture
No matter the size of your bathroom, we all want more storage. Look around your home for unused accents, such as a small shelf, chest - or even a cupboard or armoire. The extra drawer space will come in handy to keep your clutter under control - while also adding a bit of style, warmth and pizzazz to your newly updated room.
Don't think that fix-ups have to be long, drawn-out projects. By following these fast updates, you'll be surprised how quickly and easily you can take your bathroom from boring to a spa-like sanctuary.
